Her last 2 vids they made them in New York and they never announce her as a Oakland artist. They put Her in Remy Ma video and have her wit juelz and shit in his video makin ppl think she from ny. I know her 1st vid was reppin the town but it didnt get no play. Its sad the only person from the Bay on Bet is a r&b chic but i would still like 2 see her let ppl know she from the town more. I like the fact she was in Keak video but dat dont mean shit. I made this thread cuz i just got thru arguing with this broad on a chatroom from Miami sayin Keesh was from NY then i Look at her new vid today and there she is again in NY. Fuck it town bidness. How yall feel bout this? Am i trippin?
Interscope Tryna Make Keyshia Cole Look like she from New York
- Thread starter Baybidness
- Start date
I feel u but its like errbody know beyonce from Houston and they make sure she do music wit niggas from the South to let ppl know. Errbody knew monica was from ATL cuz she did her vids down there. Keesh been on 106&park like 15 times and i neva heard her mention the town. Like all r&b broads rep where dey from. Ashanti is from the burbs and she put it on the map. I never heard of glen clove before she shot her video out there. U feel me? What r&b broad is out that u dont know where she from? But yeah im just ventin.
Thank u cuzzo. I knew i wasnt trippin. If i wasnt from the town or even the Bay i would not know where she was from. She dont rep it at all. She hyphy but she never sayin what it do to the bay. I just expect a hyphy rat like that 2 rep where she from yadamean? I wouldnt expect goapele or latoya london to be reppin the town but as hyphy and ghetto keesh is u would expect her 2 be yellin town bidness or givin us a shoutout.
IN R & B MUSIC, NOBODY GIVES A FUCK ABOUT WHERE U'RE FROM. ALL THAT MATTERS IS IF U CAN SING OR NOT. THERE R NOT TOO MANY R & B ARTISTS WHO PROCLAIM THEIR HOMETOWNS IN THEIR LYRICS, BECAUSE FO THE MOST PART IT'S POINTLESS. IMAGINE THE TEMPTATIONS SAYIN THEY WERE FROM DETROIT IN THEIR SONGS BACK IN THE DAY. IMAGINE MARVIN GAYE SAYIN WHERE HE WAS FROM IN HIS MUSIC. U CAN'T, BECAUSE THEY KNEW THAT IT IS WHERE U AT, INSTEAD OF WHERE U'R FROM. I'M OUT THIS BITCH.
Its like this tho. Think of any r&b broad in the industry and think if u know where she from. I know where damn near every broad in r&b from cuz they rep dat shit. Shit even lil tearria marie be reppin detroit real tuff. I aint sayin the shit really matter but i just find it funny that interscope tryna make it look like she from New York and she aint neva came out and said she was from Oakland on TV. As much shit she be talkin wouldnt u expect her to say she from the Town?
I see what you're saying. Again, why does it matter that Beyonce is from Houston?
This topic came up before about Keyshia Cole not "reppin" on 106 & Park. I still don't understand what would be gained if she stood up and said, "I'm from Oakland". Don't say that some attention will be brought to the bay, cause that shit don't mean nothin if we don't have hits coming out of here.

Yeah he ain't lying. But it would be nice to see Keyshia collaborate with a Bay artist and come out with a hit. But she's doing what she has to do to get her shine on. We all live in a individualistic society. It's every man for themselves in this bitch. Who knows, Keyshia may have been done wrong in the past. Let the woman have her spotlight. She worked hard for it.
Iight I got 2 things...
1. Every magazine article I ever read with Keyshia in it, she ALWAYS mentions the Bay, and how Pac and Hammer mentored her etc.
So its not like she aint reppin the Bay at all.
2. Take Amerie for example. I just found out the other day that she's from Washington D.C.(friend read it in the cd booklet). I never once saw her rep D.C., but I seriously doubt people from over there are trippin that this is the case.

Who's to say Keyshia Cole hasn't collaborated with any Bay Artists?
You have to remember that the big wigs at the label basically picks the songs that go on the album. She may have had songs with bay cats but they just didn't make the album.
Also, I remember reading somewhere that Bailey has her on one of his songs.
If Interscope dropped her tomorrow it would be because of lack of record sales. Not because she failed to "rep" where she's from.
Most of you cats arguin the other point probably didn't even buy her CD in the first place.
